RESUMEN

ABSTRACT: Sport-related shoulder injuries, including disruptions to the acromioclavicular joint (ACJ), are common. An ACJ injury is classified by the degree and direction of the clavicle displacement. Although the diagnosis can be made clinically, standard radiographic views are important to determine the severity of the ACJ disruption and assess for concurrent injuries. The majority of ACJ injuries can be managed nonoperatively; however, surgical treatment is indicated in some cases. Long-term outcomes are generally favorable for most ACJ injuries, and athletes generally return to sport without functional limitations. This article provides an in-depth discussion regarding all aspects of ACJ injuries, including clinically relevant anatomy, biomechanics, evaluation, treatment, and complications.

RESUMEN

BACKGROUND: Acromioclavicular joint (ACJ) injuries are among the most common injuries in contact and non-contact sports. As winter sports become more popular, there has been an increase in shoulder injuries among recreational skiers and snowboarders. METHODS: This was a retrospective analysis of all patients who presented to the Denver Health Winter Park Medical Center with ACJ injury from 2012 to 2017. We examined the incidence of ACJ injuries, the injury mechanism, demographics, and type of ACJ injuries among skiers and snowboarders treated at the clinic. RESULTS: A total of 341 ACJ injuries (6.7% of total visits) were encountered during the study period. The majority of ACJ injures were type I (41.3%) and mainly occurred in men (86.5%). Most (96.8%) of the cases were primary ACJ injuries on the right shoulder (56.9%). The average age of patients with ACJ injuries was 30.0 years (range 10-72). More than half (62.2%) of ACJ injuries occurred while snowboarding. The most common mechanism of injury (93.5%) was fall to the snow while skiing/snowboarding. Women were more likely to have a type I ACJ injury than men (80.4% vs 35.4%; P < 0.001). Women with ACJ injuries were more likely to suffer the injury while skiing than snowboarding (71.7% vs 28.3%; P < 0.001), compared to men who were more likely to suffer the injury while snowboarding than skiing (67.5% vs 32.5%; P < 0.001). CONCLUSIONS: Most of the ACJ injuries were type I and occurred mostly in men. Snowboarders were more likely to have an ACJ injury than skiers. LEVEL OF EVIDENCE: Level IV, Epidemeiology Study.

RESUMEN

Participation in skiing, and especially snowboarding, continues to rise. As participation and level of competition in these winter sports increases, the number of injuries increases as well. Upper-extremity injuries are more common in snowboarding, whereas lower-extremity injuries are more common in skiing. Head injuries, particularly concussions, are common in both sports. Special consideration in these sports should be given to environmental conditions, such as high altitude and ultraviolet radiation. The purpose of this review is to discuss the most common musculoskeletal injuries seen in skiing and snowboarding, as well as considerations for initial assessment of these injuries and triage to the appropriate level of care. It is important for sports medicine physicians covering these sports to understand initial assessment and treatment of these injuries. Due to the potential for severe injuries in these sports, it is important to be able to quickly recognize an injury that needs to be assessed and treated urgently or emergently. With the increased participation and number of injuries in these sports, it also is important to consider prevention strategies that may minimize risk of injury.

RESUMEN

With the increasing popularity of mountain biking, also known as off-road cycling, and the riders pushing the sport into extremes, there has been a corresponding increase in injury. Almost two thirds of acute injuries involve the upper extremities, and a similar proportion of overuse injuries affect the lower extremities. Mountain biking appears to be a high-risk sport for severe spine injuries. New trends of injury patterns are observed with popularity of mountain bike trail parks and freeride cycling. Using protective gear, improving technical proficiency, and physical fitness may somewhat decrease the risk of injuries. Simple modifications in bicycle-rider interface areas and with the bicycle (bike fit) also may decrease some overuse injuries. Bike fit provides the clinician with postural correction during the sport. In this review, we also discuss the importance of race-day management strategies and monitoring the injury trends.

RESUMEN

Posttraumatic soft tissue swelling is a relatively common presenting complaint among athletes. Due to its broad differential diagnosis, a comprehensive evaluation beginning with history and physical examination are recommended. Imaging including radiography, ultrasound, and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) are preferred modalities. Aspiration of a fluid collection, preferably under ultrasound guidance, may help with the diagnosis and management of some of these conditions. Morel-Lavallée lesion (MLL) is an uncommon condition consisting of a closed degloving injury caused by forces that create pressure and shear stress between the subcutaneous tissue and the superficial fascia or bone. Most commonly, MLL is found over the greater trochanter and sacrum, but in rare cases can be found in other regions of the body. In most cases, concurrent severe injury mechanisms are present. Sports-related MLL are rare and underreported. Depending on the stage and type of MLL, therapeutic strategies may vary from compression wraps and aspiration to surgical evacuation.

RESUMEN

Zika virus (ZIKV) is an arthropod-borne virus that is mainly transmitted via a bite from a female mosquito of the Aedes species. However, ZIKV can be transmitted sexually or via blood. Due to the recent ZIKV outbreak in South and Central America, many national and international organizations are concerned about the safety of athletes, coaches, staff, and spectators during the Olympic and Paralympic Games. Infected individuals are generally asymptomatic or have mild symptoms. However, ZIKV infection can potentially cause serious complications such as Guillain-Barre syndrome and congenital defects. Preferred diagnosis is based on real-time reverse-transcription polymerase chain reaction from blood and urine. Currently, there is no treatment or immunization available for ZIKV infection, and disease control is limited to preventing mosquito bites.
